Shah Rukh Khan was born on 2 November 1965 in New Delhi at 6:25 am, the birth time he gave himself in 2012. With that time his kundli has a Libra (Tula) ascendant at 13°20′, a Capricorn (Makara) Moon sign and Dhanishta nakshatra, and since 4 October 2025 he has been in the 17-year Mercury mahadasha. The other time in circulation, 2:30 am, gives a Leo ascendant; the Moon sign is Capricorn with either time.

His important planets

  • Venus: Ruler of his chart, in the 3rd house (Sagittarius). Charm, art and showmanship, built through his own effort.
  • Saturn: In its own sign (Aquarius), in the 5th house. His best planet: lasting success in films and creative work, and patience that pays.
  • Mars: In its own sign (Scorpio), in the 2nd house, the place of speech and money. A strong, quick voice and the drive to build wealth.
  • Mercury: In the 2nd house with Mars. Wit and business sense; it runs his main period from 2025 to 2042.
  • Jupiter: In the 9th house (Gemini), the place of luck. Fortune, mentors and goodwill; it looks at his rising sign.

What his chart says, in plain words

Shah Rukh Khan turns 61 on 2 November 2026.

His birth chart is the chart of a self-made performer. The planet that rules his chart sits in the place of effort and showmanship.

The strongest planet in his chart, Saturn, sits in the place of creativity and entertainment. That suits a man who built an empire out of films.

His place of speech is very strong too. He is as famous for what he says as for the roles he plays.

His big rise came in a 16-year lucky phase that began in Oct 1990. His hardest years, after 2018, came during Saturn's seven-and-a-half-year test, and so did his biggest comeback.

Since Oct 2025 he has been in a new 17-year phase of words, business and deals.

What is Shah Rukh Khan's birth time?

He gave it himself: 6:25 am. On 8 September 2012, a fan asked for his birth time on Twitter, and a minute later he replied "i think 6.25 am...thats the only time i came for work early...". Astro-Databank, the largest public collection of birth data, uses this time and rates it A (from memory).

Many astrology sites use 2:30 am instead, which gives a Leo ascendant. Astro-Databank notes that this time came from a horoscope website with the original source unknown, and AstroSage labels it "Dirty Data" on one of its pages. No birth certificate or hospital record of the time is public.

We tested both times against 23 dated events in his life (details below). The events do not decide between them, so this page uses his own word. The Moon sign, Capricorn, is the same with either time.

What happened when, and why

Astrology splits a life into long phases, each ruled by one planet, with shorter phases inside. Below, each public moment of his life is matched with the phase his chart was in. This is how astrology reads it, not proof.

1965 to 1990: the searching years

From about age 7 to 25 his chart ran a restless, hungry phase (Rahu, Oct 1972 to Oct 1990). It suits years of trying things, searching and building ambition.

  1. 18 Jan 1989
    His first TV series, Fauji, goes on air.
    Why then: He was in a short phase of the Moon. In his chart the Moon looks after career and public image.

1990 to 2006: the lucky rise

In Oct 1990 his chart entered 16 years of Jupiter, the planet of growth and luck. In his chart Jupiter sits in the place of fortune. Almost everything that made him a star happened in this phase.

  1. Apr 1991
    He decides to act in films and moves to Bombay.
    Why then: His lucky phase had begun six months earlier, and the two slowest planets, Jupiter and Saturn, were both backing his career.
  2. 25 Oct 1991
    He marries Gauri.
    Why then: A short window of Venus, the planet of love. Venus is also the planet that rules his whole chart.
  3. 26 Jun 1992
    His first film, Deewana, releases and wins him the best debut award.
    Why then: The opening years of his lucky phase, with a short window of Mars, the planet of drive and courage.
  4. 12 Nov 1993
    Baazigar makes him a star and wins him his first Best Actor award.
    Why then: A new phase of Saturn began. Saturn is the strongest planet in his chart, and it sits where creativity and entertainment live.
  5. 20 Oct 1995
    Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge releases and becomes a legend.
    Why then: A phase of Mercury. In his chart Mercury rules fortune.
  6. 13 Nov 1997
    His son Aryan is born.
    Why then: A phase of Ketu. In his chart Ketu sits in the place of family.
  7. 16 Oct 1998
    Kuch Kuch Hota Hai releases.
    Why then: A phase of Venus, the planet of romance. These were the years he became the face of the love story.
  8. 22 May 2000
    His daughter Suhana is born.
    Why then: A short window of Saturn, which in his chart rules the place of children.
  9. 25 Jan 2005
    He is named for the Padma Shri.
    Why then: A phase of Rahu, the planet linked with fame in the wider world.

2006 to 2025: the builder years, and the test

In Oct 2006 his chart moved into 19 years of Saturn, the strongest planet in his chart. Saturn rewards patient hard work and builds things that last. It also tests.

  1. 10 Aug 2007
    Chak De! India releases.
    Why then: The first years of his 19-year Saturn phase: serious, disciplined roles.
  2. 9 Nov 2007
    Om Shanti Om releases, made by his own company.
    Why then: The Saturn phase also favours building your own house: here, producing his own films.
  3. 24 Jan 2008
    He wins the Kolkata team in the new IPL.
    Why then: Saturn builds things that last. From actor to owner.
  4. 12 Feb 2010

    Why then: A phase of Mercury, which in his chart rules fortune and foreign lands.
  5. 27 May 2012
    KKR win the IPL for the first time.
    Why then: The same Mercury phase: luck in his own ventures.
  6. 27 May 2013
    His son AbRam is born.
    Why then: A phase of Ketu, in his place of family, with a short window of Saturn, the ruler of children in his chart.
  7. 9 Aug 2013
    Chennai Express releases.
    Why then: A phase of Venus, the ruler of his chart and the planet of entertainment.
  8. 1 Jun 2014
    KKR win their second title.
    Why then: Jupiter and Saturn were both backing his place of gains at that time.
  9. 21 Dec 2018
    Zero does not work, and he steps back from lead roles for four years.
    Why then: This was the middle of Sade Sati, Saturn's seven-and-a-half-year test over his Moon (Jan 2017 to Mar 2025). A pause is typical of it.
  10. 25 Jan 2023
    Pathaan releases: a record-breaking comeback.
    Why then: The last months of a Rahu phase (May 2020 to Mar 2023), the planet of sudden, huge rises. The comeback came before Sade Sati even ended.
  11. 7 Sep 2023
    Jawan releases and beats the record Pathaan had set.
    Why then: A phase of Jupiter, the planet of growth.
  12. 26 May 2024

  13. 1 Aug 2025
    He wins his first National Award, for Jawan.
    Why then: The last months of his 19-year Saturn phase. Saturn pays for long, patient work, and it often pays at the end.

Since Oct 2025: the years of words and business

In Oct 2025 his chart entered 17 years of Mercury, the planet of speech, business and deals. In his chart Mercury rules fortune and foreign lands, and sits in the place of speech and family wealth.

The year ahead, from 2 November 2026

  • Overall: The whole year falls in one sub-period of his chart, Mercury within his Mercury main period (4 Oct 2025 to 1 Mar 2028), graded Good: it scores above the middle of his adult life.
  • Goes well: Money and savings can grow, and family life feels steady; awards, mentors and work abroad can bring luck.
  • Watch out: Competition gets tougher and rivals can push back.
  • Why: Mercury runs both his main period and this sub-period, and it is a helpful planet for him (it rules his house of luck). Together this stretch scores above the middle of his adult life.
  • Work: His film King, announced for 24 Dec 2026, falls inside this Good stretch.
The slow planets this year (a traditional reading that did not pass our test)

Tradition also reads the movements of Jupiter, Saturn and Rahu through the signs. In our test of 212 public events, rules built on these movements scored 0.48 and 0.47, about the same as a coin toss (0.5), so they play no part in the grades on this page. For reference only:

  • Jupiter: in Leo on 2 Nov 2026, then Cancer from 25 Jan 2027, Leo from 26 Jun 2027.
  • Saturn: in Pisces on 2 Nov 2026, then Aries from 3 Jun 2027, Pisces from 20 Oct 2027.
  • Rahu: in Aquarius on 2 Nov 2026, then Capricorn from 5 Dec 2026.

Astrology shows tendencies, not certainties. This page makes no forecast about health or legal matters, and repeats no rumours.

His good and difficult periods, 2026 to 2043

These are traditional astrological readings of his coming years: a broad tendency, not a guaranteed forecast. This way of grading periods was tested on 212 dated public events from 24 lives and matched them better than chance, but it still misses often.

From 2 Nov 2026 to Mar 2043, one grade for each sub-period of his chart. Green is good, gold is mixed, red means go carefully.

These dates depend on the 6:25 am birth time, which is not certain. With another birth time they can shift by a year or more.

GoodNov 2026 to Mar 2028Mercury / Mercury

Goes well: Money and savings can grow, and family life feels steady; awards, mentors and work abroad can bring luck.

Watch out: Competition gets tougher and rivals can push back.

Why: Mercury runs both his main period and this sub-period, and it is a helpful planet for him (it rules his house of luck). Together this stretch scores above the middle of his adult life.

The numbers behind this

Main period: Mercury, value +1. Sub-period: Mercury, value +1, counted twice. Score: 1 + 2 x 1 = 3. That is higher than 65.1% of the weeks of his adult life (ties count half), so the grade is Good.

Sky: Jupiter mostly in Leo (his 11th house), Saturn mostly in Pisces (his 6th house).

MixedMar 2028 to Feb 2029Mercury / Ketu

Goes well: Money and savings can grow, and family life feels steady; overseas releases, shoots abroad and travel can do well.

Watch out: Contracts and partnerships can need renegotiation.

Why: His main period belongs to Mercury, a helpful planet for him (it rules his house of luck); this sub-period belongs to Ketu, neutral for him (it sits in a sign of Mars, which is neutral for him), and the sub-period counts double. Together this stretch scores below the middle of his adult life.

The numbers behind this

Main period: Mercury, value +1. Sub-period: Ketu, value 0, counted twice. Score: 1 + 2 x 0 = 1. That is higher than 36.7% of the weeks of his adult life (ties count half), so the grade is Mixed.

Sky: Jupiter mostly in Virgo (his 12th house), Saturn mostly in Aries (his 7th house).

GoodFeb 2029 to Dec 2031Mercury / Venus

Goes well: Media, social media, interviews and ad campaigns can work well; his public image and personal brand can shine.

Watch out: Career moves can face delays, and big launches need extra care.

Why: His main period belongs to Mercury, a helpful planet for him (it rules his house of luck); this sub-period belongs to Venus, a helpful planet for him (it rules his chart), and the sub-period counts double. Together this stretch scores above the middle of his adult life.

Sky: Jupiter mostly in Scorpio (his 2nd house), Saturn mostly in Taurus (his 8th house).

CarefulDec 2031 to Nov 2032Mercury / Sun

Goes well: Fewer openings than usual. The steadiest area: home life and property matters can go smoothly.

Watch out: Income from his businesses and KKR can be uneven; his public image can draw criticism, so avoiding public spats helps.

Why: His main period belongs to Mercury, a helpful planet for him (it rules his house of luck); this sub-period belongs to the Sun, a difficult planet for his rising sign (it rules the 11th house, which counts against it), and the sub-period counts double. Together this stretch scores in the lowest quarter of his adult life.

The numbers behind this

Main period: Mercury, value +1. Sub-period: Sun, value -1, counted twice. Score: 1 - 2 x 1 = -1. That is higher than 11.7% of the weeks of his adult life (ties count half), so the grade is Careful.

Sky: Jupiter mostly in Capricorn (his 4th house), Saturn mostly in Gemini (his 9th house).

MixedNov 2032 to Apr 2034Mercury / Moon

Watch out: Career moves can face delays, and big launches need extra care; plans abroad and help from mentors can slow down.

Why: His main period belongs to Mercury, a helpful planet for him (it rules his house of luck); this sub-period belongs to the Moon, neutral for him (its house, his career house, counts neither way), and the sub-period counts double. Together this stretch scores below the middle of his adult life.

The numbers behind this

Main period: Mercury, value +1. Sub-period: Moon, value 0, counted twice. Score: 1 + 2 x 0 = 1. That is higher than 36.7% of the weeks of his adult life (ties count half), so the grade is Mixed.

Watch out: Contracts and partnerships can need renegotiation; career moves can face delays, and big launches need extra care.

Why: His main period belongs to Mercury, a helpful planet for him (it rules his house of luck); this sub-period belongs to Mars, neutral for him (its houses, money and partnerships, count neither way), and the sub-period counts double.

Sky: Jupiter mostly in Aries (his 7th house), Saturn mostly in Cancer (his 10th house).

CarefulOct 2037 to Jan 2040Mercury / Jupiter

Goes well: Fewer openings than usual. The steadiest area: his career status can rise, with big roles and honours likely.

Watch out: Media and social media can turn critical, so fewer interviews help; competition gets tougher and rivals can push back.

Why: His main period belongs to Mercury, a helpful planet for him (it rules his house of luck); this sub-period belongs to Jupiter, a difficult planet for his rising sign (it rules his houses of effort and of conflict), and the sub-period counts double.

How we grade the periods

The rule. Each planet gets a value for his rising sign, Libra, from the houses it rules (a classical rule): Saturn +2 (his best planet); Mercury, Venus, Rahu +1; Moon, Mars, Ketu 0; Sun, Jupiter -1. A stretch scores the main-period planet's value plus twice the sub-period planet's value. That score is compared with every week of his adult life (1983 to 2026): the top quarter is Very good, the next quarter Good, then Mixed, and the bottom quarter Careful.

The test. Before using it, we tested this rule and five others on 212 dated public events (126 highs, 86 lows) from 24 people with reliable birth times: 5 from India, including Shah Rukh Khan, and 19 heads of government and party leaders abroad. The question was simple: does the rule score a person's highs above their lows? A coin toss scores 0.5 and a perfect rule 1.0. This rule scored 0.62 (0.63 for the Indian group).

Shuffling the highs and lows at random matched it only 4 times in 1,000 (0.028 after allowing for testing six rules), and charts drawn for wrong birth dates scored 0.50 on average, reaching 0.62 in 1.0% of tries. On his own 23 events it scored 0.63. The other rules, and the earlier rule this page used (which scored 0.56), did not pass.

So the grades carry real but modest information: a stretch graded Careful can still bring a hit, and a Very good one can still bring a setback.

Questions people ask

What is Shah Rukh Khan's birth time?

Shah Rukh Khan gave his own birth time as 6:25 am on 2 November 1965 in New Delhi: on Twitter on 8 September 2012 he wrote "i think 6.25 am". Many astrology sites use 2:30 am instead, but no one has traced where that time comes from. No birth certificate time is public, so the exact time is not certain.

What is Shah Rukh Khan's rashi (Moon sign)?

His rashi is Capricorn (Makara). At 6:25 am the Moon was at 23°28′ Capricorn, and at 2:30 am at 21°32′ Capricorn, so both published birth times give the same rashi.

Which nakshatra is Shah Rukh Khan?

Dhanishta, pada 1, with his own 6:25 am time: the Moon was at 23°28′ Capricorn, just past 23°20′, where Dhanishta begins (Lahiri ayanamsa). With the 2:30 am time it is Shravana, pada 4. Sites that say Shravana use the 2:30 am time or a larger ayanamsa than Lahiri.

What is Shah Rukh Khan's ascendant (lagna)?

Libra (Tula), at 13°20′, with his own 6:25 am birth time. The 2:30 am time gives Leo (Simha) at 21°47′.

Which zodiac sign is Shah Rukh Khan?

In Western (tropical) astrology his Sun sign is Scorpio. In Vedic (sidereal) astrology his Sun is in Libra, his Moon sign (rashi) is Capricorn and, with the 6:25 am time, his rising sign is Libra.

Which mahadasha is Shah Rukh Khan running now?

The Mercury mahadasha, from 4 October 2025 to 4 October 2042, with the 6:25 am time. Inside it, the Mercury sub-period runs to 1 March 2028, and then Ketu to 26 February 2029.

Is Shah Rukh Khan in Sade Sati?

No. Saturn is in Pisces, the 3rd sign from his Capricorn Moon. His last Sade Sati ran from 26 January 2017 to 29 March 2025, and the next one begins on 8 December 2046. Sade Sati is a traditional reading of Saturn's movement; in our test of 212 public events, rules built on such movements did no better than chance.

What is the rashi of the name Shah Rukh?

By the classical naming syllables the name begins with the sound ष (Sha), pada 2 of Hasta nakshatra, so its naam rashi is Kanya (Virgo). The first-letter chart common in Gujarat puts names beginning with Sh in Kumbha (Aquarius). His birth rashi, from the Moon, is Capricorn.

Each of 23 dated public events was matched with the periods running that day under a rule fixed before any result was seen (career rise: 10th and 11th houses; gains: 5th and 11th; marriage: 2nd, 7th and 11th; a child: 2nd, 5th and 11th; a setback: 8th and 12th). Every birth time was also scored on every 7th day from 1985 to 2026, to find what chance alone gives. A distance from chance (z) near 0 means no better than chance; 2 or more would start to mean something.

6:25 am2:30 am
Dasha points, rule 1 (chance level)14 (18.39)49 (47.08)
Rule 1, distance from chance (z)-0.97+0.33
Rule 2, distance from chance (z)+0.72+0.06
Double transit hits of 23 (chance level)3 (5.55)11 (8.82)
Double transit, z-1.26+0.95

Neither time beats chance, and the second rule (added after the first was seen, as a check) reverses the order. The events cannot separate the two times, so this page uses the one with the better source: his own.
